How To Save Clips From A Dvd Onto A Computer?

[BlackRoseThorn]

I want to use some clips from a DVD for a project i'm doing at school (long story). The only problem is I can't work out how to get the DVD saved onto my computer so that i can use the footage. I was wondering if anyone knew how to do it?
Thanks in advance

There is software available which can capture whatever is showing on your screen........ rather like a "screen shot", but with video.
I know there's a free one, but I can't remember its name. I have a think, but someone will probably know of another way.

Murray...... it it's a commercial DVD, wouldn't it need to be de-crypted first?

[murraymints]

I have Nero that does any decrypting if needs..

i don't even know what de-crypting means. Thanks, i'll look into those

Ooops I'm out of date Murray. I didn't know that Nero de-crypts as well.

Rosie...... de-crypting removes all copy protection and other stuff that spoils all the fun ;o)

that makes sense. This is the type of thing they should teach in schools
